#01 I would like a communication kit. How do I get one?

You can download the digital kit.
It includes posters, documentation about the programme and the graphic charter for Erasmus Days.
We also offer a large quantity of content you can relay: graphics, testimonials, visuals for social networks or audiovisual productions.

#02 I ordered an Erasmus Days print communication kit. When will I receive it?

You will receive your kit in September or October. An email will inform you that the kit has been sent.

#03 May I get more than one Erasmus Days print communication kit?

You can order only one kit by event. This kind of kit is available in France only. 

#04 Do all the countries involved in Erasmus Days provide a print communication kit?

No, print kits are not available in every country. Please check with your Erasmus+ agency to have more information about Erasmus Days print kit in your country.

#05 Where may I obtain official documentation for my event?

You may order documentation from your Europe Direct information centre: https://europa.eu/european-union/contact/meet-us_en.

#06 I want to register an event on the website, but I am unable to submit it, because an image is required. What do I do?

You can download the digital kit which is available on the website and use one of the visuals provided in it. Please make sure the file size is not too large (ideally, less than 500 KB).

#07 I registered my event on the website but I don’t see it on the map. Is it normal?

Events submitted must be approved by a web administrator before being visible on the map. It means there could be a short delay between the submission of the event and its validation. In any case, if you have received a confirmation email, your event will be reviewed shortly.

#08 I registered my event on the website but haven’t received a confirmation email. Is that normal?

When an event is submitted on the website, you receive an automatic email confirming the submission a few minutes later. If not, please check your email again, including your “junk mail” folder. If you still can’t find it, but you think having correctly submitted your event, please wait 72 hours and check if it appears on the map of events. There could be some technical issue preventing the confirmation email from reaching you due to high-security filters in your server. If your event is not on the map within 72 hours of registration, please feel free to register again.

#09 My event is registered on the website, but I would like to modify it. Is this possible?

If you want to change any information about your event (date(s), content, images, etc.), please send those changes to us, including a link to your event (e.g. http://erasmusdays.eu/yourevent) using the form.

#10 Which countries may participate in the Erasmus Days?

Erasmus Days take place anywhere in the world, as long as the event has a strong connection with the Erasmus+ programme.

#01 How can I share my Erasmus+ experience abroad?

We encourage students, teachers and trainers, jobseekers, and anyone who has benefited from the Erasmus+ Programme to post a testimonial on social networks.
To do this, just post a photo or a comment using the Erasmus Days hashtag.

#02 Are these events accessible for people with reduced mobility?

Each organiser uses the means which they deem to be useful or which are at their disposal to provide access to anyone eligible to participate in their events.

#03 How can I contact an event’s organiser?

Information about events is provided in the event listing. To view a listing, check the map or the list of events.

#04 How can I know the topic of the events organised?

The event listing gives you access to event’s websites and social networks. Follow them for the latest news provided by the event’s organiser.

#05 Is there any admission fees to join an event?

The vast majority of the events are free. The terms and conditions of participation are provided in the event’s listing.

#06 Do I need to reserve a spot to attend an event?

The terms and conditions of participation differ from one event to another. Check the event description for more info.

#07 Are the events open to everyone?

In theory, anyone can participate in an Erasmus Days event. However, each event is organised by an individual structure which could decide not to open its event to the general audience (e.g. an Erasmus Days event for a school’s students, parents of students and teachers). Each event on the map includes a description which will give you more information about this.

#08 How can I find the events organised around me?

Check the map accessible from the website’s homepage to learn about the events organised around you. You can select the country, the dates and the type of event you want to attend.

#01 What are the official social networks of Erasmus Days?

There are no official Erasmus Days social networks.
You can however refer to the official accounts of your national Erasmus+ agency.

#02 How do I share an event on a social network?

1 - Before your event

  • Include the #ErasmusDays hashtag wherever you can: on your printed documents, in your email signature, and on your and your members’ websites.
  • Describe the programme and think about introducing your speakers.
    Lastly, refer readers to your event’s web page for more information.
  • Publish useful information: times and locations, contact people at your organisation, etc.

2 - During your event

  • Present the event on your social networks using the #ErasmusDays hashtag and mentioning the official social media accounts.
  • Set up news feeds and discussions on Twitter.
    • Announce each session using your event’s #ErasmusDays hashtag.
    • Post memorable quotes from the speakers, linking them to their Twitter accounts.
  • Publish useful information: times and locations, contact people, etc. Communicate on other social networks using your event’s #ErasmusDays hashtag.
    Remember that, even without a Twitter account, web users can follow the latest news from your event via those other platforms.
  • Produce as much content as possible during your event: anything and everything is good for maintaining and reviving your community’s interest.
    Take pictures with your smartphone. Shoot films of one minute or less, of participants summarising their speeches or the contents of the discussions and the topics addressed.

3 - After your event

  • Recap your event and publish highlights from it.
  • Select the most interesting aspects and summarise them, including the #ErasmusDays hashtag.
  • Write articles about your event for your blog or website and post links on all your social networks.
  • If possible, send a newsletter to your website’s or blog’s subscribers.
